Ha ha. Sorry man, if anyone wants to argue that McCartney rocks or ever rocked, I'll argue that he most certainly did not until I'm dead and they bury me in the internet.
He may well be a musical genius, a natural talent, and he wrote and sang a lot of songs that I love. But he also wrote some of the cheesiest songs in the history of cheese. And he just never, ever had enough...I dunno...angst to rock. Bad shit happened to him, I'm sure he had anger in there somewhere. But he buried it under that smile, and never let anything dark or frightening or weird (i.e. interesting) out.
But what do I know.
